Summer vs. Winter

Time for another diptych in my Different Seasons series. And what a difference it is. This is the grassy beach at Upper Lake Rudan in Handen. The summer part of the photo is from June of last year. The winter half, where you can spot a lone ice skater out on the frozen lake is how the beach looked yesterday.

Astounding, Steffe. Here in Australa, the difference between winter and summer is nowhere near as extreme. It is rare for the winter temperatures in Sydney to less than 18C as a maximum or less than 10C as a minimum. I suspect much of our winter is comparable with much of your summer.
